That's interesting. I wonder if that recruiter needs to work on his filing system a bit -- e.g., work on stuff in the inbox, then place it in the outbox :)

I wonder what the most politic way to deal with this situation would be. It sounds like you were polite but honest, which is a good thing in my book. I might have done the same, but perhaps it would have been better to just play along, score higher, and get pushed to the next step? Just speculating!
